A return to an evening task st Emmanuel Church.

This week Sybil had asked if it would be possible for us to give the church a spring clean ready for their Easter services.

A received a very warm welcome from Sybil who then led us into the church.

Brooms,feather dusters and clothes at the ready we split into groups and proceeded to dust and remove as many cobwebs as possible.

Kevin was in charge of ladder holding while Adam gave the ceiling a brush.

Graham and Brad with the help from one of the church wardens fashioned an extra long brush to reach the cobwebs above the arches.

A quick refuel thanks to the wonderful lady wardens who had made us cheese on toast in addition to tea and coffee and fruit,we also finished off my birthday cake. Refueled we made a final push to get the final webs before we said our goodbyes not before Sybil made sure we had some fruit for when we got home.

Kevin and I ran to the Adventure Playground via the Olympic Park.

Tim had walked from Stratford via the River Lea

Hilary was leading the running from the Print House.

Ange met us at the gate,she had a very busy day with over 100 children having spent time enjoying all the playground has to offer.The have a trip on a canal barge coming up which sounds like great fun.

Tonights task was to restack a pile of wood as it had been left with nails sticking out and quite precarious.

Some of the small pieces will be uses for the fire pit and pizza oven.

Wood restacked we went to have a look at the tadpoles in the newly built pond. The pond is part of a project to have a pathway of small ponds along the Lea Valley to increase amphibians.

We said our goodbyes and headed home.

Next week we are heading to see Sybil at Emmanuel Church
